Have you ever wondered how and when the famous Guinness Book of Records was created?

It is said that on one occasion after the hunt, Hugh Beaver, the director of the Irish Guinness Brewery, had a fierce quarrel with the hunters over which bird is the fastest of all European game birds.

When he returned to Castlebridge that evening, where he stayed in his host's library, Hugh looked among the books for an answer to his dilemma.

He realized that he would not find the answer to this, as well as to a number of similar questions in written documents.

Thus, he created the idea of ​​a book that will solve all doubts regarding the records.

He turned to the London Fact-Finding Agency run by twins Norris and Ross McWhirter

The Guinness Brewery published the first edition of the book four years later, on August 27, 1955, on 198 pages

The book became an absolute hit and topped the bestseller list.
